WARNING: DO NOT RENT FROM THIS COMPANY! They are what we consider ""Slumlords"".
This company recently became known in the San Clemente area for buying up the older poorly constructed buildings that need tremendous amounts of work. These buildings have various issues that CA Coastal has failed to fix. If you rent an apartment from them, you'll have numerous habitability issues.
The buildings heaters have constant problems, plumbing issues are never ending, and the time that tenants wait for repairs is far longer than California laws allow.
The rents they charge are much higher than the surrounding area rents. One bedrooms in the area are currently going for $900 to $1300 with some or all utilities included. CA Coastal's one bedrooms are going for $1600 and up! They think that because a place has an ocean view it will rent at a higher rate. While that may be true, these apartments are hardly worth the amount of rent they want. I wouldn't let my neighbors dog live in another one of their places!
First, try opening the cabinets under the kitchen/bathroom sinks. You'll most likely find some very big holes in the walls that have not been repaired. The new fake hardwood floors have various issues of peeling up and coming off! Moldings come off for no reason. The windows either have no screens or are broken. The bathrooms have mold growing in the showers/sinks. Bathroom ceilings are wet/cracked/peeling. Their buildings have issues with R oaches. Their excuse is ""we live in a beach environment, it's just a fact of life"". R oaches are a habitability issue, end of story. Seems this website blocks out the those words....hmmm strange.
Pros: Close beach locations
Cons: Read the review!!!
